The original was (for some obscure reason) written in assembly code. C-AFS currently runs on machines that * use 32 bit longs (almost all systems) * dont use byte swap (this is a severe restriction) C-AFS v0.08 is compatible to AFS v1.08 (known as AFS v1.8). Unlike AFS v1.08, it will not process files coded with older versions of AFS (below v1.05). The version stamp of C-AFS will default to AFS v1.08, code v1.05, for compatibility reason.

Here is a list of features not (yet) included in C-AFS * invisible password typing * retry on pw failure * delete outfile on disk error * support for old code revisions * parser syntax checking * check for insufficient data security * interface to ListManager utility Additionally, you will find the following differences: * C-AFS is slow compared to AFS
